Gerald-I don't think we have ever met and I don't post on here a lot but your view on this is really screwed up. It doesn't matter who was right or wrong or what was said. It takes a complete p@ssy to run down an 83 year old man. For that the kid deserves a bullet, not a trial and three squares a day.

This is our problem now a days, there are to many that put to little value on human life.

. The young man that ran down the old man was a POS that the LEO's new well.

I met him here locally at night and rescued him twice in one night. He was new here and had just got an air boat, that's how I got to know him.

But the locals that knew him had no use for him. It was in his genes. WE, DO have a choice and do not have to live with birth defects.

The bleeding hearts DO and CAN make a difference in SOME cases. This one was a sleeping time bomb waiting to happen. We live around them daily. The LEO's knew, but their hands were tied by our panty laced justice system. I learned about this from the LEO's.

The young man had no right to kill but we do not know what set the stage.

Can we ASSUME that the old man was totally innocent?

Who is to say that he was not stable either?

Some may say that the old man did not deserve to die this way but how about the young?

Which is worst, an old person to be killed or a new born? The new born is innocent. Was the old?

cannot throw the young under the bus because I believe that I am god.

Trying to follow your point so I deleted the drama so I can try to understand your point you agree Cops and Locals that knew him said he was a POSYou helped him he was ok to you when he was being rescued? then the question he had the right to run down a old man because he had bad genes somehow bleeding hearts saved him when he was a baby did not follow that one Not sure what new born being killed has to do with Young guy running over a old man with his truck unless old man was going to kill new born?

As I approach the great 60 in couple weeks pretty easy in my book unless the old man was pointing a gun at the punk in the truck he had no right to run him down like a dog. If that holds up that old man was unarmed figured if he had gun the news would have posted it then facts would support a person saving a life by shooting the pos in the head before he had a chance to kill anyone with truck or whatever.......................

Sorry just cannot follow your logic I sure you fill in the blanks, notice no name calling or preaching to you so just the facts what your trying to say is all I like to hear, From what I have read online and buddy of mine the is a leo told me kid was POS and killed the old man cold blood if that is fact hope they fry his ass................................

I think N.O.G.'s Point is that there it something wrong with this young man He had a bigger problem then the one at the boat ramp that dayAnd unfortunately that was the moment it all came to a head I believe we are all a product of our environment I can only imagine this young man did not come from a good oneI do believe anyone can escape there chains, but he did not

I met that kid my self and couple of months ago when his friend sunk his boat a the park . He was there on his boat with a nice girl and a young boy around the same age as my son about 5 years old He seemed normal and was there to help his friend

I crossed paths with the guy several times. Outwardly friendly but arrogant to the point of obnoxiousness. Wild eyed and definitely hammered every time I saw him. Most of what I knew of him was second hand but fit with my experience. Just the same, didn't expect that news. Ironically, he had sent my wife a friend request on FB over the weekend. She was saying "what the heck is this guy trying to friend me for?" and we talked about what a weird thing it was, especially since we barely knew him and didn't really care for his company. Two days later, the guy's a murderer.

Thank-you Wayne for making this post in the fine, unbiased and intelligent fashion that you did. I attempted such a post a couple times but was unable to attain the finished result that you did. Like others, I was not able to decipher the logic that may have been contained in his post either.

It's crazy that the everglades is one of the seven wonders of the world It has so much beauty but yet there is still aways tragedy thereI wonder if anyone's been run over in the parking lot of the Taj Mahal

"HuntingBigun" I wondered what took you so long. LOL Every story has lines between the lines and everything cannot be said in one posting. So we make a post and wait for the repercussion then make an attempt to explain the basic meaning of the original post to every ones satisfaction. I thank you for you're rational reply and agree with MOST of the responses, some of which did not read between the lines. Enough said without going on for another 2 pages to explain in detail to every ones satisfaction.

To open ones eyes, you must let them see!

Remember; sometimes it's better to be thought a fool than to open you're mouth and prove it.

OOPPSS, here I go again, trying to explain. I just read the last line in my post (from you're post) and realized that part of the last line in my post was incomplete. Out here, my computer will often stop working and if I don't "proof read" my posting, some of the posting will be left out. I failed to follow through at that point and haven't a clue as to my point at that time. OOPPSS!

Regardless of the point you were trying to make....the young man driving the truck, unless his life was being threatened, used extremely poor judgement in running this man down resulting in his death.No one deserves to die in such a manner!

WOW.....speak of talking in circles..........should have been a politician..........should be running for office.......sooo??? what was the last line of your post supposed to say??Just wondering..........I get the jist of the your original reply the remainder leaves one to wonder where you went from there.
